I have tried to flash Jellybean from Gingerbread but have not had good results. I have always had to reflash to Gingerbread. I later heard that Gingerbread can not be flashed to Jellybean directly. I heard that you must go to Ice Cream Sandwich first and then flash Jellybean.
MY QUESTION: Is this true?
If true, where do I find a stable ROM and gapps for ICS?
My specs: LG-P505 Phoenix - Android 2.3.4 - Kernel 2.6.35.7 perf - Baseband V20f
I am a noob. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
You can flash JB from GB, but you need a phone with a better cpu and memory, i think LG Phoenix is not supported.

Hi there.
I want to flash fast custom kernel for my captivate 2.2 official froyo (AT&T). My captivate is very slow and having much lags. I didnt install any lagfix.
I want to install Custom kernel using SGS Kernel Flasher. My captivate is fully rooted.
Firmware is 2.2
Baseband Version: I897UCKB1
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9
Build Number: FROYO.UCKB1
AT&T Samsung Captivate
Can someone explain android version versus kernel version? I see there is an updated AT&T stock rooted 2.3.6 flashable zip I can download from the forum. It isn't clear if it's the Kernel or the version of Android. What would be the difference with the 2.3.6 from my stock 2.3.5?
My Rogers i727R says it's Android version 2.3.5 and kernel version 2.6.35.11. From what I understand, the AT&T was also 2.3.5 and kernel version 2.6.35.11. So if I understand this update correctly, it updates the entire OK, therefore it is a ROM, not a kernel, correct?
If this is correct, why did not update the kernel to 2.3.6, or is there no such thing?
Yes its a rom. Android gingerbread version 2.3.6 that is the android version the kernel version of this rom is still 2.6.35.11 im not sure what differences there are on this rom it was an ota update we got a few days ago. And the kernel and android version are not the same. I dont believe the kernel version number , and android version are ever the same
The kernel number is the Linux kernel version that the Android build is based off of, and barring some highly unusual set of circumstances, won't happen to overlap.
hey guys ive been having trouble to get flash an fxz because rsdlite kept saying flash failed, but i think i finally got it right. now my question is what is the atrix 2 stock 2.3.5 kernel version and build number? my phone currently says (after fxz): Android Version 2.3.5, Kernel Version: 2.6.3598a0a06 [email protected]#1, Build Number: 5.5.1-175_EDFFW1-16
I just did a factory wipe/reset using RSD Lite to 2.3.5 using the AT&T Retail 2.3.5 ROM from here:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php
(and I did add the little patch file because I had been running 2.3.6) and the build info and kernel version match what you posted so, I'd say that's the true "stock" factory condition, yep. I'm already updating to 2.3.6 as I'm typing this, actually.
Hi all,
I've recently purchased an AT&T Samsung Infuse 4G but it came with factory stock Gingerbread 2.3.6 installed. I need to have stock Gingerbread 2.3.3 installed instead. (for device testing)
I've found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193927 that talks about downgrading to 2.3.3 but it's for a Rogers handset - if I followed this tutorial would I run into problems with my AT&T unit?
I would love to get some help on this one, there's a ton of resources available on this site but apart from the thread linked above, nothing quite specific enough for me.
Here's some more information on the phone:
Model number: SAMSUNG-SGH-I997
Firmware version: 2.3.6
Baseband version: I997UCLB3
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I997UCLB3-CL977492
Build number: GINGERBREAD.UCLB3
The very first gingerbread stock ROM released for the infuse was 2.3.6. A stock 2.3.3 does not exist.

2.3.6 UCLB3 is the only official stock GB for the Infuse.
2.3.3 is Canada Roger's Carrier. If you're on ATT, there is really no point in flashing it to 2.3.3 - unless of course, you are selling it to a Canadian. Even if you are selling it to a Canadian, just change the APN to Roger's.
2.3.6 has better video than 2.3.3
Hello guys,
I am currently on First ICS 4.0.4 Full 3D ROM Ported From SU760 (software version: LGSU760-V30b-OCT-18-2012). I also have the P940 recovery installed. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956347&highlight=install+official+ics)
I was wondering if I can directly install the official ics rom from lg over this rom?
Also is it possible to install OptimusRs Jelly Cream rom over my current rom directly? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2392309&highlight=install+official+ics). The post states '1.You are on Official ICS V30A or v28b or v30b or v30c...etc' as a prerequisite.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Use this ROM and dont make any wipes and any formats .
Just push the rom into SD card and flash.
'Ported ICS' comes from the Korean SU760 device. It has bugs. It was our early unofficial version of ICS and is not compatible with newer ROMs like Jellycream. It is outdated/obsolete.
For more recent ROMs you first will need to install a version of ICS that was released by LG (or a rooted version of it like xbsall's rooted v28B: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39269819).
Not sure what Edufex posted there but as far as I know he has good advice. I am no dev to be sure. :beer:
Edufex, Thank you for the reply.
I downloaded the rom and flashed it without any wipes or formats. After the flash when i restarted the phone, i boot into the same rom i had on the mobile and phone service is disabled. I am not getting any signals from atnt now.
Any suggestions as to what i should do now?
Thanks.
